Description
Located on the Great Eastern Highway. Originally known as
Mount Baker it was a little too similar to Mount Barker and the name was changed
in 1902 to avoid confusion. The name comes from a local settler John (or James)
Baker.
Although today Bakers Hill itself is little more than a refreshment stop there
are a number of interesting towns in the surrounding area including
Chidlow,
Wundowie, Wooroloo and
Clackline
where you will find a good rest area on the east
side of the bridge (with public toilets.)
Look for signs advertising the sale of local produce in this area. You can get
excellent stone fruit and tomatoes (in season) at rock bottom prices.
(Please help us get more information on this town).
